| Upgrading a CD/SACD player with integral DAC Yes, it is. And I’d prefer whatever I upgrade to to have that capability also, even though I have no SACD’s to play. The Hegel Mohican I read only plays Redbooks CD’s for example, so that might, but not necessarily, rule that model out. Mike | |
| Upgrading a CD/SACD player with integral DAC I'll take a look at what Marantz offers Jafant. Thank you for the suggestion. I've not listened to other brands to appreciate the differences. If I remember I originally got the Marantz SA 8005 because it was recieving good reviews and Saul Marant... | |
| Fell asleep while TT was running with ortodoncia black cartridge! Thanks for posting your question teo_audio. I've often wondered would happen to my Ortofon 2M Black's needle if I didn't get the tonearm lifted right away after a record ended. I left it on for only five minute after a record had ended yesterday a... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Bill Evans "12 Classic Albums", a new arrival, so I’ve been working my way through them. Sam and Dave: "Hold On I’m Comin’ ", Mendelssohn Piano Trios, and The White Stripes "Elephant", an eclecltc listening day. Too cold to go out and split wood t... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Got four new Coltrane CD's' via Amazon during the past week. Starting to listen to "Both Directions at Once" right now. The first two tracks are spectacular. Monk and Coltrane at Carnegie Hall was amazingly good too, and much better than expected.... | |
| Romex to your amp? Excellent post skipskip. I think you definitively provided the reason nobody should do this and why it is a code violation. In my case I never tried hardwiring my sytem into the Romex because it is a code violation, but I didn’t know why it was on... | |
| Romex to your amp? I was going to do exactly as your friend described except wire the Romex into my Shuyata Denali Hydra 6000S power conditioner instead of an amp. The Shuyata Denali was intended to tale out any line interference.Unfortunately, I was informed this w... | |
| Another Music Direct Catalog observation It’s about time we got in charge of the musical culture. We had to listen to endless pop jazz treacle when we were coming up. Your kids will have the same complaints about your music soon enough. By the way that was a beautiful picture of Joni Mit... | |
| VPI forum Give them a call and convey the problem you're having. I've used their forum, plus called them a few times also. They've always answered the phone and have been responsive either way. The owner even will answer questions posted to him on the forum... | |
| REST IN PEACE - TIM MROCK "Fly with the angels my love" is lovely, Krissy. Thank you for sharing your heartfelt sentiment and so sorry for your loss. Michael | |
| Please Make Audiogon Cool You're a scream Eric. Hope I bump into you one day at an audio show or something. You can bring Roxy along if you like. She sounds like fun too. | |
| Most annoying song, period. When driving, any country music that comes on the radio while changing stations . Followed by any music enjoyed by those two dastardly clowns who don't like the Beach Boys. Mike | |
| Amps with meters ... Gregj, perhaps your letter wasn't threatening enough.Anodyne, you need to enjoy the incomprehensible and enigmatic, not question it. Mr Squires certainly doesn't and look at how many of us have responded to his thread.Grasshopper | |
| Electric feedback from water circulation pump That Subdrive 20 submersible pump controller is something I’ve not heard of before. It sure is a pricey item, and must be the latest technology. Most systems on a well pump water into a much bigger holding tank, like noodlyarm describes, than your... | |
| Electric feedback from water circulation pump It would be considerably less expensive to change out the offending circulator (pump) and/or transformer. Price out a similar circulator from Grundfos, Taco or another reputable brands like Bell & Gosset (no Chinese junk) and you’ll be pleasan... |
